Kenny Anderson on Gottlieb show this AM

[Dcuse]

Happened to listen while driving this morning. He was talking about his book when Gottlieb asked him about what happened to NYC where all the great point guards used to come from. Gottlieb went on to mention the greatest to come out of NYC..Marbury,Mark Jackson, etc. He mentioned 5 or 6 and then asked Kenny the question. Anderson stopped him and said" Whoahhh! You left out the best ever to come out of the city,Pearl Washington and my thoughts and prayers go out to him." Gottlieb's next comment was,yeah, well I graduated the same time as Steph Marbury and he was truly amazing or something to that effect.
Now I know we may be over sensitive to this schmo but it honestly,by tone of voice, sounded to me like the omission was intended. Just another log for the fire.

Kenny should have asked him if he stole Marbury's credit cards.

I think Perl got short handed in that conversation because of his NBA career. If the guys on TNT were talking about the best point guards from NYC I don't think they'd bring him up either. Don't think it's a slight on Pearl at all.

On TNT...I think Kenny Smith definitely would. He talked quite a bit about him last night.

Guess you had to be there. Conversation was totally about high school,not NBA. And it's Pearl,not Perl.

Last night Kenny Smith pretty much said everyone looked up to Pearl

Didn't realize that.

He and Barkely both talked about him one night.

Was it Barkley that said SU should be doing more than selling t-shirts, they should pay all his costs because he built the school's basketball program? I can't recall who said that on one of the shows...

Before Pearl, Tiny Archibald was widely considered to be the best point ever to come out of NYC. Lately, Kemba Walker wasn't too bad either.

Heartily booing Gottlieb as he ran up the stairs in the SU section along with about 2000 other cuse fans was one of the reasons I consider yesterday a success!

THANK YOU!!!!!! I thought I was wrong on Barkley, but couldn't think of where I heard it.

Great job by you guys. Did everyone have their credit cards after he was gone?
